We have a lot of mosquitoes in this area at times so the fish won't have to worry about starving!

The picture was taken after hurricane Matt so that's why the plant looks messed up.

I just wanted to know why ammonia, nitrate and nitrite keeps going up. I recently moved 4 goldfish that were in my 75 gallon tank outdoors into a 110 gallon stock tank that I filled to about 90 gallons. I set it up with a sponge filter and air pump for 100 gallons used the media from the established tank that I already had. When I first started the tank I kept it running for a few days and tested the water before adding the fish. I added...

How does the maintenance change between a pond and a tank? Do the plants significantly reduce the need for water changes?]]>28Pond Planning...Wed, 24 May 2017 16:16:55 +0000http://goldfishkeepers.com/community/threads/pond-planning.12463/
http://goldfishkeepers.com/community/threads/pond-planning.12463/invalid@example.com (clevergirl)clevergirlI have put myself in charge of installing and maintaining my parents new goldfish pond...only because I'm afraid that they will kill the fish without meaning to since they don't understand basic fish needs...even though we had an aquarium in the house from the time I was a freshman in high school. They have a rather small 2 foot deep plastic pond that they have had for a few years but now have a bug up their butts about absolutely needing it installed this season.

What do you think? A good purchase? My fish are getting huge and I'd like to move then outside come Summer. Thanks in advance !!]]>15Galvanized Stock TanksSun, 16 Apr 2017 01:45:38 +0000http://goldfishkeepers.com/community/threads/galvanized-stock-tanks.12309/

One of my fish has a large scrape and bloody spot on his side. It looks like it has been healing, but what can I do to ensure the fish heals up well?

I can easily treat it now as she is in a holding pool until I am done with the cleaning. I have some basic meds on hand and can grab anything that is needed. Thanks!

I had watched some YouTube videos on a few set ups.
This is mine with a simpler way of doing it without having to use glue or whatever.
This is for a 55g Rubbermaid tank.
The piping I used was Toro funny pipe 8" flex assembly and a funny pipe fitting 1/2 female elbow.
Bought at ace hardware and dollar general, total came to about 20$ for all the parts....
